For over a decade, the DAISY Consortium has helped readers around the globe by developing and maintaining DAISY Standards that provide access to information for all and offer a rich reading experience.

The DAISY Consortium wants to continue empowering people who cannot read print due to a visual, physical, perceptual, developmental, cognitive, or learning disability. We will continue to advocate for equal access to information.

We need your help as the DAISY Consortium is committed to providing accessible software such as AMIS, DAISY Pipeline, Obi and Tobi free of charge.

Every donor who makes a gift to the DAISY Consortium, makes a difference.

P.S. If you value access to information as a fundamental human right, we hope you’ll choose to act right now.

You can donate via PayPal even if you don't have a PayPal account by using your credit or debit card. Alternatively, you can donate by mail.
